Job 27

  1. Moreover Job continued his parable, and said, 🔗
  2. As God liveth, who hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul; 🔗
  3. All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils; 🔗
  4. My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit. 🔗
  5. God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me. 🔗
  6. My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live. 🔗
  7. Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous. 🔗
  8. For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul? 🔗
  9. Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him? 🔗
  10. Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call upon God? 🔗
  11. I will teach you by the hand of God: that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal. 🔗
  12. Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye thus altogether vain? 🔗
  13. This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which they shall receive of the Almighty. 🔗
  14. If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword: and his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread. 🔗
  15. Those that remain of him shall be buried in death: and his widows shall not weep. 🔗
  16. Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay; 🔗
  17. He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver. 🔗
  18. He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth that the keeper maketh. 🔗
  19. The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he is not. 🔗
  20. Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night. 🔗
  21. The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth: and as a storm hurleth him out of his place. 🔗
  22. For God shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand. 🔗
  23. Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place. 🔗
